Professional diligence • Clear communication
THE PERSON BEHIND THE PRACTICE
I am Máté Petrovai.
As an attorney-at-law, I work primarily in real estate and corporate law, while also assisting clients with family property matters, inheritance law and selected debt recovery matters.
I had already set my sights on becoming a lawyer before beginning my legal studies. What shaped the kind of lawyer I wanted to become, however, was above all practical experience.
As a lawyer, I believe it is important to see not only the legal matter, but also the person behind it. Legal situations often involve uncertainty, questions or even concern, particularly when someone does not know exactly what to expect.
I first take the time to understand what has happened, what is causing the greatest uncertainty and what my client would like to achieve. It is important to me that there is room to ask questions, seek clarification and address any uncertainties throughout our work together.
I aim to explain the available legal options, the risks involved and the next steps in a way that is clear even without a legal background.
The decision belongs to the client. My role is to provide clear,
well-founded legal guidance on which to base that decision.
WHAT I VALUE IN WORKING TOGETHER
The principles behind my work
Attention
and patience
I take the time to understand my client’s situation, their questions and what they would like to achieve.
Clear, direct communication
I speak openly and clearly about the available options, the risks and the circumstances that matter.

I consider it important that my client knows where their matter stands and can reach me when necessary.
Diligent
legal work

PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND
My approach has been shaped
by practice.
During my legal studies, I gained practical experience in both law firm and court environments, working on matters including civil law, real estate law and corporate law.
After graduating, I began my career as a trainee lawyer at Harron Law Firm. From the outset, I worked on substantive and complex matters for both Hungarian and international clients, from initial consultations through the preparation of contracts and other legal documents to the conclusion of each matter.
The professional approach and working methods I developed there continue to shape my own legal practice today, while my close professional cooperation with Harron Law Firm has continued alongside my independent practice.
